1. Ask the person leading you around (if they are a student) if they like the school. They are probably programmed to give you a very prepared response…..so keep asking why and dig deeper. You want to figure out is this person sincere or are they trying to sell you the program.

2. A big part of your visit is to get a feeling of the culture. Walk around on your own, try starting a conversation, ask for help with directions….are these the kind of people you want to be around for 3 years?

3. Ask to sit in on a class – afterwards start talking with students not connected with the tour and ask them their feelings of the school.
